Would you like to see the "help 4" button work? And increased to 20 or a "help all" button?

In my alliance I spend 5-10 minutes pressing the help button every hour. The help 4 is broken and works for maybe the first 100 but after that it just doesn't respond. I've tried this on several devices it's the same. Not helping my teamates or leaving my alliance isn't an option so if your gonna leave that type of comment please dont, all other constructive comments are welcome

I voted sarcastically as the voting option I chose was written

Suskanut

They had a help all button once but it caused great lag just like the help 4 button does on occasiom

Jingot

Add also "ask for help all"

I perhaps should have read all the comments before voting, would indeed like to see the help 4 button work more consistently at least

Did anyone actually sit through that 6 minute video of me pressing the help button? Lol

To be honest I'd just like to see the help 4 button work period. It constantly stops working and has for years with no fix. Which should be a simple fix.

i say no. Just cause some how this if they did change it I think it would cause problems somewhere else. Lag etc.

I stopped even requesting help in arena and would actually like an option to turn it off. I could play faster if I didn't have to scroll past them to get to usable champs, but I would rather not request help than have the lagging that comes with getting help. It's only a 10 minute difference in cooldown and isn't worth the awful game performance.

That is the worst reason I've ever heard, lol. That's like saying oh let's not remove this tumor cause we may hurt another area of the body while doing it. You still have a tumor!!!!!! Lol.

Actually he is right. It was already answered in the past that a "help all" button would cause problems to the game

Have you forgot the game is no longer operating on the same basic platform it was this time last year, that's just for starters, being a network engineer I'm somewhat aware of how these games work. And I can assure you fixing the broken help 4 button could be done wither relative ease. Adding a help 20 button or a help all or doing away with the whole thing altogether are all viable options. The whole reasoning of not fixing something that is broken cause it might and I stress the word might break more things or in this case cause more things to go wrong is not sound logic. There could be a fix or improvement made to this. Like one example is change the data packets so they aren't separate for each champion requesting help, put the data packets to encompass all the champions as 1 champion, idk if I explained that well. My point however is I know for a fact there are ways to fix this.

Without causing disruption or more lag, matter of fact there are ways to make the whole section run smoother and fix the help button with 3 guys and a weekend committed to it.

And that's worst case scenario, it could be done during a Tuesday maintenance

Turn off help would be great, it's really annoying asking for help, then, after changing screens, realize they are back as if you had not asked.
